The Chicago Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-4, at PNC Park. Chicago center fielder Lao-sheng Louis led the way. He went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Micah Hatcher earned save number 1 this season. The win gives Chicago a record of 2-1.

Louis had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a first pitch fastball from Joe Poole, he banged a 3-run home run to right, giving the Cubs a 7-4 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Louis.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," Louis told the Chicago Chronicle.
